With color ranging from the creamier pinkish-tan of the sapwood to rich gold, oranges and reds found toward the “heart” of the wood, reclaimed antique heart pine is sure to be the centerpiece of any décor. One of our most popular woods, Heart Pine is the heaviest and hardest softwood in the world and is excellent for any application.

Acclimating wood products

Proper acclimation of wood products prior to installation is essential to a succesful finished product. Always allow plenty of time after recieving any wood product for the material to properly and completly acclimate to its new envirenment. This is typically accomplished in a week or two by placing the material as close to its final installation area as possible. HVAC systems should have been running prior to material arrival and set at normal living conditions for a proper acclimation of the wood products.
